There are some ingredients that you only know how to prep in one or two ways, because that’s how you have always seen it done. For me, bhindi is one such ingredient. I know it either as a tangy,slightly spicy masala or as a simple fry.

I recently tried a bhindi dish which tasted really different! It had tamarind in it!

Making the most of strawberry season and using it as an excuse to face my fears! Presenting my first ever galette! Crispy, buttery and filled with delicious strawberries ❤️ How’s that for a new year resolution?

India has such a beautiful array of regional food, it will be lifetimes before anyone can try it all. I will do my bit to keep sharing whatever I know and love so that you can try new things and develop an even deeper love and appreciation for Indian food 🙂 The Aloo posto, kasundi chicken, pepper chicken , lemon rice are some such dishes you must try!

Given my Bihari-Bengali roots, it’s natural to want to share some of those cuisines more than others 🙂 This simple channa (split Bengal gram) dal is a staple in most Bihari households.

It’s not that easy to find good quality strawberries so I make the most of it whenever they are available. Eat as many as I can! Makes sense to also find ways to bake with them right? This cake is super easy and every bite is moist,buttery and strawberry-filled. Happiness, indeed!
